Swiss Infantry
Empress Dragoons
A full set of Brunswick sprites...

:P
I can't promise anything at the moment. But helpful if you can provide reference.

Do the Chasseurs pass inspection?

The chasseurs are very nice. I'd like to substitute the ones we use in the KS mod with yours. With your permission, of course.

Here are a couple of pictures of Polish infantry.

The fusiliers from the 1st drawing and the Vistula grenadiers from the 2nd would be most appreciated.

Frankly I think the Prussians would look better if you'd use these:

I can make this march and I will make Georgia howl.

They're fantastic. I'm pleased you had them wear the overalls rather than the buff coloured breeches. Look so much better.

Agree with MTG, the Polish czapka shako is quite distinctive. Nothing else like it anywhere.

Some Swiss uniforms here (but beware the Valaison and Neuchatel battalions which were not part of the 1st to 4th Swiss regiments).

http://www.fsegames.eu/forum/index.php? ... #msg808012

1er Bat. 2eme Regt Etranger (Suisse) in 1815:

All 4 Swiss Line Regts (not all saw service in 1815):

http://thenapoleonicwargamer.blogspot.c ... ligne.html

Basically a French uniform with French company distinctions and colours but jacket was red with:

1st Regt: mustard yellow facings
2nd Regt: Dark blue facings
3rd Regt: Black facings
4th Regt: Mid-blue facings

Brunswick Contingent:

Regt. Dragons de l'Emperatrice:

The Swiss and Brunswick infantry could be done using the sprite layers system as the facing differences while distinctive are simple.

Whatever eventually gets done will be very gratefully received by all the games fans, I'm sure.

Anyone can use any of my sprites in any mod or alter them as they wish.

I'm up dated the mod so the double OOB's don't happened. Delete the original mod folder first then replace with new version - same download link. Also added two more OOBs (AM and PM) - the Chasseurs are in all OOBs ending CaC.

I loaded the mod files into the mod folder and restarted the game like we are supposed to, but, the mod doesn't take effect. I've checked the box activating the mod, alos.

It's puzzling because I've loaded other mods successfully.

Here's what subfolders are in the mod file:

Chasseurs a Cheval Guard
- subfolder Graphics subfolder Packed
- subfolder Logistics
- subfolder OOBs

I'm puzzled. This uniform mod should be activated but isn't.
